Yu-Gi-Oh! Fourseasons

On Youqiu and Huiyue's side.

They were facing a statue representing "darkness"—a dark-haired woman wearing a gray dress.

The statue reads: "The silence of death will bury you!"

Upon hearing this sound, You Qiu reacted just like Gu Jun, but even more severely—

My heart was racing, my face was pale, I had difficulty breathing, and I even felt like I was about to lose control of my bladder and bowels!

Huiyue shook Youqiu: "Hey! Miss Youqiu, are you alright?"

Upon hearing Huiyue's voice, Youqiu's symptoms eased slightly, and he replied, "Didn't you recognize it? That's the voice of the King of Sin!"

Huiyue smiled wryly, "Of course I can tell. But she's definitely not here. Why are you reacting so strongly this time?"

You Qiu shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe it's because of the Sin City Palace."

Upon hearing this, a smug smile flashed across Huiyue's face.

The two unfolded their duel disks, preparing for their duel—

"Duel!" x2

Statue: "First strike is mine. My turn."

"I usually summon [Mechanical Puppet Trojan Horse].

"I activate the effect of [Trojan Horse of Death] to destroy this monster!"

Yu Qiu thought to himself, "Is the monster that destroyed itself... preparing for what's to come..."

As You Qiu had predicted—

"[Death Trojan Horse]'s effect activates, Special Summon [Mechanical Puppet Porcelain Doll] and [Mechanical Puppet Necromancer Doll] from your hand."

"I'll use two Level 8 monsters on the field to build a stacking network!"

"Xyz Summon! Rank 8! [NO.40 Mechanical Puppet - Heavenly Strings]!"

"I'll activate the Spell Card [Rank-Up Spell - Emergency Chaos Power] from my hand to summon [Heavenly Strings]! I'll use a monster to build a stacking network!"

"Chaos Xyz Transformation! [CNO.40 Mechanical Puppet Demon World String Player]!"

"[Demon String Player]'s effect is that when this monster is Special Summoned, destroy any monsters on the field with line counters, then draw one card. Although there are currently no monsters on the field with line counters, the draw effect can still be activated."

"I activate the effect of [Rank-Up Spell - Emergency Chaos Power] in my Graveyard, and add this card from the Graveyard to my hand."

"I cover a card and the turn ends."

1 statues in hand, 1 in front row, 1 in back row, 8000 life points, 1 in graveyard, 0 banished.

Shining Moon: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I activate the effect of [Machine Moon] in my hand and Special Summon it to the field."

"I activate the effect of [Moonlight Thruster] in my hand, select one monster on my field, reduce that monster by two levels, and Special Summon that monster."

[Crescent Moon Thruster], Light attribute, Level 8, Effect Monster, Machine type, ATK 500, DEF 0.

"I'll summon two Level 8 monsters on the field! I'll build a stacking network with these two monsters! Xyz Summon! Level 8! [Crescent Moon, Moonlit Mech - Throne of the Moon] (Defense Position)!"

"I activate the Spell Card [Rank Down Spell - Power of the Moon] from my hand, select one [Crescent Moon] monster on my field, and reduce that monster's rank by one!"

"I will integrate the [Moon Throne] into one! I will construct a superimposed network using a monster!"

"O dragon encircling the moon, descend upon the world in the form of moonlight! Rank Down Xyz Transformation! Rank 7! [Crescent Moon Moonlight Dragon]!"

"I activate the effect of [Moonlight Dragon] once per turn, remove 1 Xyz Material, and add 1 [Rank-Down Spell] to my hand. I add [Rank-Down Spell - Half Moon] to my hand."

"Advance to the combat tier!"

"[Moonlight Dragon] Attack [Demon Realm String Player]!"

[Moonlight Dragon] charged at [Demon String Player] with all its might, but was mercilessly cut in half by the long sword in the [Demon String Player]'s hand!

However, Huiyue smiled and said, "At this moment, the effect of [Moonlight Dragon] is activated. When this monster is destroyed by battle, select any Xyz [Crescent Moon] monster from the Extra Deck and Xyz Summon it over this monster!"

"I will integrate [Moonlight Dragon] into one! I will use a single monster to construct a stacked network!"

"Pure white knight, don the armor made of moonlight and fight for the goodness of the world! Rank Down Xyz Transformation! Rank 2! [Shining XYZ Crescent Moon White Knight - Moonlight]!"

"When I activate the effect of [Moonlight], if this monster is successfully Xyz Summoned, all monsters on both sides of the field with a higher Level, Rank, and Arrow Count than this monster become Xyz Material for this card!"

"[Moonlight] Direct Attack!"

Statue: "I open my face-down card—Trap Card [Scrap Scarecrow], negate this attack!"

Huiyue: "I am entering the second major phase."

"I activate the effect of [Moonlight], and place two Moonlight Counters on this card! This monster's ATK increases to 4100!"

"I activate the effect of [Scarecrow] in my hand. If there is a [Harvest] monster other than this card on my field, I can Special Summon it from my hand."

"I liberate the [scarecrow], and the higher-ups summon [genetically modified warriors]."

"I've set a link arrow for [Genetically Modified Warrior]! Come forth! The circuit that symbolizes my life! The summoning condition is one [Autumn Harvest] monster! Link Summon! Link 1! [Autumn Harvest Harvester Warrior]!"

"Advance to the combat tier!"

"[Golden Revolution Dragon] Attack directly!"

This time, the statue did not activate [Scrap Scarecrow], but instead chose to take 3200 damage head-on.

"Continue! [Autumn Harvest Meteorite Dragon], attack directly!"

Statue: "I open my face-down card—Trap Card [Scrap Scarecrow], negate this attack!"

You Qiu: "My turn is over."

"Not only that, you will also have to take damage from the attack power of the monster with the highest attack power!"

The Demon String Player's longsword plunged into the ground, sending a ripple through the air, causing the two to involuntarily take two steps back.

Yu Qiu began to retaliate: "I activate the effect of [Golden Revolution Dragon] to destroy [Demon World String Player]!"

Scythes burst forth from the ground, piercing through the [Demon String Musician]!

You Qiu: "Don't mistake me for someone with amnesia!"

"[Autumn Harvest Dragon] Attack directly!"

"Harvest Assault!"

The statue's base score is zero!

At the same time, the others also finished their duel with the statue, and the entire Palace of Sin trembled!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The floor in the very center cracked open, revealing the staircase underneath!

You Qiu walked to the stairs first and muttered to himself, "King of Sin, your death is not far off!"
